This week, Yeseo shared where she would like to go in a hot air balloon and then created her very own colorful hot air balloon artwork. She also explored the texture of sandpaper and had the opportunity to draw an animal of her choice directly onto it. Even though she is young, Yeseo does a wonderful job expressing her ideas through drawing. She received lots of praise this week—and even earned five beautiful stickers! We’re so proud of her.See you next week for another fun and creative art lesson!
This week, the children created their very own one-of-a-kind bags! They chose animal designs and used a silkscreen stamping technique to transfer the image onto the bag. After that, they added beautiful shapes and patterns to decorate it in their own unique style. Aren’t their artworks just wonderful?
This week, we had a flower petal-making lesson using origami techniques. We folded the paper point to point and side to side, then cut and glued the pieces together to complete beautiful petals. When we combined all our petals, they formed lovely flowers. In the remaining time, we worked on our hanji collage art project. Everyone participated with great effort—it was a wonderful and creative art class!
This week, we recreated the artwork of Park Soo-keun by drawing on sandpaper and coloring with crayons. The children’s pieces beautifully captured the rough texture that is characteristic of Park Soo-keun’s unique matière style.

Great job again this week, everyone!

She worked with great focus and added her own special style, expressing her feelings through art in a beautiful and creative way. It was lovely to see how Yeseo connected with the story and meaning behind the ox, showing strength and warmth in her painting.
